Symptom
You receive a message saying the system cannot locate a file as it is starting
Solution
If the object data is stored on another computer, from the Windows desktop click My Computer. If the network drive holding the database appears, double-click it. A list of files should appear. If it does not, contact your IT support for network assistance. If files do appear, try starting the Showcase again.
If the object data is stored on this computer, you may need to restore your Showcase database from your most recent backup.
If this is a new installation, by default Showcase stores object data to Local Disk C in the folder Showcase/Scsdata.
To specify a different location, from the Windows desktop click My Computer, then Local Disk C, then the ShowCase folder. Double-click the file SETSCS.EXE and enter the correct path to the object data using either DOS path or UNC conventions.
